Betterman Lyrics by John Butler Trio

Living 2001-2002

2001

[Verse 1]
So better man I am since I
Come into contact with you
And you taught so many things about myself
And you know this is true
[Bridge]
But now we are apart
And it's all my fault
'Cause you know I need to be alone
Don't know myself
So how can I share me with you girl
Or anyone
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't want to be a thorn in your side
Good woman
Always be the one
To make you cry
Don't wanna be that guy
Good woman
[Chorus]
'Cause you deserve everything
And I got nothing so leave me
And I'll go away better off I stay
Far from you, you, you, you, you
'Cause you are beautiful
Beautiful woman
[Verse 2]
Now typical man
I am because you think
I want my cake and eat it too
Girl, say I can't be in a relationship
But I still feel for you
[Bridge]
'Cause you are the best woman
This old man has ever met
You taught me about my soul
You shared with me
Your magic
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't want to be a thorn in your side
Good woman
Always be the one
To make you cry
Don't wanna be that guy
Good woman
[Chorus]
'Cause you deserve everything
And I got nothing so leave me
And I'll go away better off I stay
Far from you, you, you, you, you, you
'Cause you are beautiful
[Instrumental]
3:20 - 6:12
[Verse 1]
So, better man I am since I
Come into contact with you
And you taught me
So many things about myself
And you know this is true
[Bridge]
But now we are apart
And it's all my fault
'Cause you know I need to be alone
Don't know myself
So how can I share me with you girl
Or anyone
[Outro]
Beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful woman
Beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful woman
So better man I am (beautiful, beautiful)
So better man I am (beautiful woman)
I owe it all to you
Better man I am
Because of you
Because of you
So sing it
Beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful woman (beautiful woman)
Beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful woman (beautiful woman)
So better man I am (beautiful, beautiful)
So better man I am (beautiful woman)
So better man I am (beautiful, beautiful)
So better man I am (beautiful woman)
Beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful woman
Because of you, you, you
Beautiful, beautiful
